Written by David CronenbergDirected by David CronenbergRunning Time: 88 minutes (approx)Production Year: 1982Rating: 18 CertificateFilmed in ColourSleazy cable executive Max Renn (James Woods) is fascinated with the boundries of human sexuality. Looking for more content for his show, he stumbles across a grisly cross between S&M flicks and "snuff" movies called Videodrome. However this isn't the average TV show everyone thinks it is - it's an experiment that uses regular TV transmissions to permanently alter the viewer's perceptions by giving them brain damage. Max finds himself caught in the middle of the forces that created the experiment, and the forces that want to control Videodrome, his body itself turning into the ultimate weapon to fight them, leading him to the edge of a deep, dark, and very dangerous emotional abyss. Directed by David Cronenberg, and featuring Deborah Harry as Renn's girlfriend Nicki Brand, Woods turns in a powerful performance. A wild, unsettling ride, it's often difficult to fathom and is very disturbing. When is Videodrome next on TV?
